Thank you to everyone who played along in last week's challenge! Our challenge participants shared some very lovely cards, which didn't make it easy for the Design Team to narrow down our voting for our Weekly Winners.

Based on the number of entries we had for Challenge #142, normally we would award three cards as our Weekly Winners. Two cards were unanimous favorites, but then we had a tie - so, instead of tossing a coin to decide between them, we'll honor an additional participant! In order of entry into the
challenge, we congratulate:

There is still plenty of time to join in our current challenge: #143 - Sketch.
You have until 11:00 p.m. London U.K. time /6:00 p.m. Eastern U.S.
time Wednesday, September 30, 2015 to link your card to the challenge post. We'd love
to have you join us!

Good afternoon everyone! It's Lizy here with the last challenge of September, and sadly, my last challenge for CAS Colours & Sketches. I have had a few difficult times over the last few months, and have decided to take some time to focus on myself, my son and my career. I'm sure I'll still be around crafting though!

So here is the last sketch from me...I think it's quite an open one with plenty of scope and I hope you enjoy using it!

Feel free to flip or rotate the sketch when creating your card. You're also welcome to change it from a square to a rectangular card.

Here is some inspiration from the design team to get your creative juices flowing:

Thank you to everyone who participated in last week's challenge! We
loved seeing what everyone created! The Design Team has chosen the
following cards as our Weekly Winners. It's a rainy, dreary day here in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia, so I'm going to brighten things up and include an extra winner. :) In order of entry into the
challenge, we congratulate:

Hello and happy Thursday! Are you ready for another challenge? This week we have colours and I do think these ones may lend themselves well to a masculine card...what do you think?

We've used Stampin' Up colour names for reference; however, you may use any companies' products for your cards as long as you match our colours as closely as possible. You may also use white, ivory, kraft, or black for your card base and layers, for image outlines, or for sentiments. However, in order to be considered for our weekly winners, you must not use any other colours.

Hi again everyone! Lizy here with a sketch challenge for you this week! I've created a sketch that offers the opportunity for simple stamping, or you could use it to create a little scene...whatever you create, we're looking forward to seeing it!

Feel free to flip or rotate the sketch when creating your card.

Hello! It's Patricia here. I'm sorry I'm running a little late with the Winners post this week. It's a holiday weekend and I've literally just gotten back home from visiting my parents. To make up for my tardiness, how about I include one extra card as a Weekly Winner this week? :)

Thank you to everyone who participated in last week's challenge! We
loved seeing what everyone created! I really enjoyed being your challenge hostess throughout August.

If you haven't played along with us yet this week, there is still time to join in our current challenge: #140 - Colours.
You have until 11:00 p.m. London U.K. time /6:00 p.m. Eastern U.S.

Hello everyone and welcome to September's challenges! It's Lizy here with your challenges for the month, and we're kicking off with this colour challenge. I know it's almost autumn, but I'm not quite ready to let go of the soft summer colours just yet!

We've used Stampin' Up colour names for reference; however, you may use any companies' products for your cards as long as you match our colours as closely as possible. You may also use white, ivory, kraft, or black for your card base and layers, for image outlines, or for sentiments. However, in order to be considered for our weekly winners, you must not use any other colours.

Here is some inspiration from the design team to get your creative juices flowing:

Each
month, the names of all the Weekly Winners from the previous month are
put into a drawing. One name is selected and that person is invited to
be a Guest Design Team member for an upcoming month of
challenges. Our Guest Designer for the
month of September, selected from our July Weekly Winners, is Biggi! She has been a frequent participant in our challenges throughout the last twelve months, and we're so happy to have her as our Guest Designer! Here is what
she's made with this week's colours:
